James Comey will tell all in his memoir next spring — but it doesn't sound like a tell-all.

The former FBI director was first reported to have a book deal in the works last month, and Flatiron Books announced Tuesday that they will publish the book about "what good, ethical leadership looks like and how it drives sound decisions."

The memoir will cover "experiences that made (Comey) the FBI's best-known and most controversial FBI head in recent times, from his handling of the bureau's probe into Hillary Clinton's private email server to allegations of ties between Russia and Donald Trump's presidential campaign," the publisher told the Associated Press.

"Throughout his career, James Comey has had to face one difficult decision after another as he has served the leaders of our country," Flatiron publisher and president Bob Miller said in a statement.

"His book promises to take us inside those extraordinary moments in our history, showing us how these leaders have behaved under pressure. By doing so, Director Comey will give us unprecedented entry into the corridors of power, and a remarkable lesson in leadership itself."

Comey, who was appointed by former President Barack Obama in 2013, was fired in May by President Trump amid an investigation into a possible Russian collusion to interfere with the election.

Flatiron, an imprint under Macmillan, has previously published books from James Bear nominee and Bravo's "Top Chef" contestant Chef John Tesar, New York Times bestseller Jenny Lawson, Oprah Winfrey, Craig Sager and Kathy Griffin.
